With six seconds left in the game, the Blues' Noel Picard was handed a game-misconduct as part of dual high-sticking minors with Ed Van Impe and supposedly set the tone for the bitter rivalry between the two teams in the first few years of their existences.

Doug Favell made 29 saves and Gary Dornhoefer netted the GWG. The Flyers finished with a 7-1-2 mark against the Blues. The win, coupled by the Los Angeles Kings-Oakland Seals tie in the wee morning hours, provided the Flyers with a West Division Championship in the team's first season. Members of the organization made phone calls to the UPI news bureau as well to the arena to verify the final score in order to celebrate the immediacy of the moment at approximately 1:30 A.M.

April 4, 1968 -- In Game One of the West Division Semifinals in Philadelphia, Jimmy Roberts scored with 6:47 to play for a 1-0 St. Louis victory in front of 10,649 in the Spectrum.

April 13, 1968 -- In Game Five at Philadelphia, Rosaire Paiement (3-0-3) had a hat trick in his first career NHL PO game (just seven regular season games played at the time) and the Flyers exploded for a 6-1 win in front of 10,587.

In the third period, with the Flyers up 4-0, the Blues' Noel Picard slugged Claude Laforge in the jaw leading to a 20-minute bench-clearing brawl. Laforge was knocked unconscious, had a dental plate broken and needed 14 stitches. Picard was ejected, joining Barclay Plager who was tossed earlier in the game. Backup goalie Doug Favell jumped off the bench and when challenged by Dickie Moore, the two fought. Said Favell "He challenged me. I wanted nothing to do with him but Moore came at me and we had it out." When the Flyers were later fined more than the Blues, GM Bud Poile threatened to quit. Poile also said that it was Campbell's second mistake of the year (mentioning the Larry Zeidel incident from earlier in the year against Boston). Favell was fined the most ($150) and many other players were fined $100 each. Flyers' head coach Keith Allen was fined $500 while Scotty Bowman of the Blues was docked $400.

Andre Lacroix scored with 15 seconds left in the third period when Glenn Hall couldn't cover an Ed Van Impe shot from the point and the game headed to OT. Don Blackburn scored on a seemingly harmless backhander that swerved just as Hall was about to smother it and the series was headed to a seventh game. St. Louis outshot Philly 28-9 after two periods, 39-27 in regulation, 10-2 in the decisive second OT and 64-43 in the game. The Blues had a 2-man advantage for 86 seconds in the middle period but failed. The Blues' goal was scored by Gerry Melnyk (see entry on June 11, 1968), seven seconds into a first period powerplay.

April 18, 1968 -- In Game Seven at Philadelphia, the Flyers attempt at recovering from a 3-1 series hole fell short as the Blues won 3-1 in the Spectrum in front of 14,646. Head coach Scotty Bomwan called up 43-year old player-coach and future Hall of Famer Doug Harvey from the minors for his first NHL action of the 1967-68 season; Harvey was named the game's top star. Larry Keenan's GWG was scored in the second period when Philly's Larry Zeidel accidentally tipped in a loose puck behind his goalie Bernie Parent. Despite no red light from the goal judge, referee Vern Buffey overruled and called it a goal. The Blues finished the scoring with an ENG. Afterwards, Bowman said "That was the toughest series ever played, the toughest that ever will be played."

June 11, 1968 -- The Flyers acquired Darryl Edestrand and Gerry Melnyk for Lou Angotti and Ian Campbell. That same day, the Blues sent Angotti to Pittsburgh for Ab McDonald.

Berenson's seven points have never been duplicated or surpassed against the Flyers (through 2009-10). Berenson had four goals in the second period and that tied an existing record, set twice, for most goals in any period. St. Louis led 5-0 after two periods and all five goals were by Berenson, who missed on his first shot but scored with his next five shots; he had 10 in the game. Defensemen Ed Van Impe and Joe Watson, the latter of whom suffered a shoulder injury and had surgery which sidelined him for 13 games until December 12th, were on the ice for all six goals and Doug Favell gave up eight goals in his first game.

Peters and Plager were tossed in the late third period.

April 5, 1969 -- In Game Three, Jacques Plante made 27 saves and the Blues recorded a 3-0 win in Philadelphia by scoring in each period. The Blues' Bob Plager said "At home, the fans have class. They throw nickels on the ice. Here, they throw pennies."

Earl Heiskala of the Flyers was eventually suspended eight games and fined $300 for a stick-swinging incident in this game. The play started when Heiskala committed a roughing penalty on Tim Ecclestone. As the two chatted, the Blues' Terry Gray elbowed Heiskala who lost two teeth, suffered a bloodied mouth and fell to the ice; upon gaining balance, he slashed Gray, who received a 5-minute elbowing major, above the forehead requiring a six-stitch cut. When offering his ruling, NHL President Clarence Campbell said "There was a substantial lapse of time between Gray's elbow smash or cross-check and Heiskala's retaliatory blow."

Earlier, St. Louis dealt Red Berenson and Tim Ecclestone to Detroit for Garry Unger and Wayne Connolly. Berenson said that Bowman traded him because of his role as President of the Players' Association. Unger said "I suppose it was my hair that got me traded" in reply to his reputation as a playboy.

January 6, 1972 -- One of the defining moments in Flyers' history happened because of this game won by St. Louis 3-2 when the Blues rallied after a brawl that carried over into the stands. Garry Unger, Phil Roberto and Gary Sabourin all scored in the third period, the last goal with 6:46 to play assisted by Andre "Moose" Dupont. Down 2-0 after two periods, Blues' head coach Al Arbour verbally chastised ref John Ashley for the way a puck was dropped in a faceoff. As Arbour continued his yelling, he received a minor penalty and then chased the ref towards the Zamboni entrance near the stands. At that point, a fan doused Arbour with a cup of beer. Witnessing this, Bob Plager of the Blues went into the crowd while other St. Louis players rushed to Arbour's side. During the melee in the crowd, which involved players, coaches, and policemen, Arbour received a 10-inch cut to the head. Garry Unger and other Blues' players battled fans and swung sticks. Blues' player John Arbour received a 40-inch cut. Al Arbour's shirt, coat and tie were torn in the fracas and he coached the third period in his undershirt. Because the Blues' players out-numbered the cops in the crowd, a 16-year old fan rushed to a payphone and called a local police station and backups responded totaling 150 police officers. The fight lasted 25 minutes and the total delay was estimated at 45 minutes. The Blues gained inspiration and scored three third period goals for a 3-2 win, including the first two in a span of 37 seconds. Afterwards, Al and John Arbour, Phil Roberto and Floyd Thomson were arrested and tossed in the cooler for one night after they were taken to a Philadelphia police station on disorderly conduct charges and assault and battery on a police officer; Thompson faced additional charges of aggravated assault and battery. Four fans and two officers were injured. Seeing the display of unity and how the Blues responded to the fracas, the Flyers decided as an organization to become a more aggressive on-ice team and to acquire such players.

February 6, 1972 -- Down 2-0 with under three minutes to play, the Flyers rallied for a 2-2 tie on goals by Simon Nolet, with 2:48 left, and Gary Dornhoefer, with 1:51 to play.

Scott Mellanby (PHI) fought Rob Ramage (STL) twice. Flyers' head coach Mike Keenan benched Rick Tocchet and the following day addressed a question that the benching was due to Tocchet's refusal to fight when directed "It's a lie. Rick Tocchet was benched because he was playing poorly. And that's the only reason." After the game, and before Keenan's denial, Tocchet said "I'm getting some momentum. I'm not going to go out and just fight." Several players said Keenan never made the directive and Flyers' GM Bob Clarke said "Rick's a good kid who wears his heart on his sleeve. He's emotional and he may have taken something the wrong way. I think he and Mike can sit down and work out their differences. I'm not angry at Rick." After the next game, Mike Keenan said "I love Rick Tocchet" following a strong effort against the Penguins.

January 7, 1988 -- The line of Rick Tocchet (2-3-5), Pelle Eklund (1-3-4) and Brian Propp (2-1-3) had twelve points (5-7-12) and Mark Howe (1-2-3) added three points in the Flyers' 6-4 home win.

November 17, 1988 -- St. Louis recorded a 3-1 victory in Philadelphia and snapped the Flyers' 34-game (31-0-3) home unbeaten streak in this series.

The winning goalie was Vincent Riendeau who profited from the Blues holding the Flyers' to a franchise record-low (since snapped) 15 shots. St. Louis outshot Philly 16-15 and the 31 total shots was the fewest (to date) recorded by both team in the Spectrum's history. After the game, Flyers' head coach Paul Holmgren said "I'm disappointed in everyone. Tonight we had zero guys going and we need twenty." Ron Hextall said "Twenty guys need to take a long, hard look in the mirror. We can't rely on Tim Kerr and Mark Howe every night." Flyers' star Rick Tocchet sat out the last of his 10-game suspension for gouging Dean Chynoweth of the Islanders.

November 29, 1988 -- In a move done in part to shake up the slumping Flyers, the highly popular Peter Zezel was traded to the Blues for Mike Bullard. ''The feeling of the organization and my own feeling was that we had to get more speed and we had to get more scoring up front,'' said Flyers' GM Bob Clarke. Zezel departed amid tears and many Flyers' fans were disappointed in the trade. Bullard said ''I was dissatisfied with the Blues. They were keying on me there, and now I'm coming to a team with a lot of talent." The swap paid immediate dividends as the Flyers went 13-2-1 in the next 16 games. Prior to the game, the Flyers won just once in 10 contests.

January 8, 1989 -- Peter Zezel (2-1-3) scored the go-ahead goal and the Blues went on to a 7-4 win in St. Louis. Mike Bullard, the player acquired for Zezel, also scored twice.

March 17, 1989 -- Brett Hull (2-0-2) scored in OT to lift the Blues, 4-3 in the Spectrum. St. Louis rallied from three one-goal deficits.

The lone Blues' goal came on a botched clear by Wregget, which hit Mark Howe's skate, and Peter Zezel reaped the benefits. The Flyers entered the game with a 1-6-1 record. Jeff Chychrun and Todd Ewen fought early in the game -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0s22gM1N1M and later Craig Berube-Tony Twist fought -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uayNw...eature=related

1990s:

January 4, 1990 -- Gino Cavallini led St. Louis to a 5-4 OT victory at home. Philly led 2-0 in the third but the Blues erupted for four goals and had a two goal lead until the Flyers evened the score 4-4. Craig Berube-Tony Twist fought-- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OewdIwAzyko

February 22, 1990 -- Keith Acton (2-1-3) and Ilkka Sinisalo (2-0-2) each scored twice in the Flyers' 7-4 road win.

The Flyers, shutout in the opening period, scored seven times against Curtis Joseph. Oates had three (1-2-3) points.

December 29, 1990 -- Ron Hextall made 34 saves and Keith Acton scored twice in the Flyers' 3-1 road victory. It was the only time in franchise history the Flyers managed to beat goalie Vincent Riendeau who finished with a career mark of 7-1-0.

March 2, 1991 -- The Flyers scored twice in the final 6:36 of regulation for a 4-4 tie in Philly. Craig Berube got the Flyers within a goal then Pelle Eklund's PPG evened the score with 2:41 to play. Murray Craven (0-2-2) assisted on each goal. Brett Hull (1-3-4), who factored in each goal, scored his 70th of the season which gave St. Louis a 4-2 lead early in the third period. Hull joined Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux as the only NHL players to score 70+ goals in consecutive seasons. Fourth-string Blues' netminder Pat Jablonski earned his third decision (1-0-2) of the season as a replacement for the injured Vincent Riendeau who took a (teammate Rich Sutter) shot to throat in practice (Curtis Joseph and Guy Hebert had prior injuries).

March 21, 1991 -- St. Louis scored three first period goals and Vincent Riendeau made 22 stopsin the Blues' 4-1 win at Philly. Dave Lowry (2-1-3) had three points. Prior to the game, the Flyers inducted Gary Dornhoefer and Barry Ashbee into the team's Hall of Fame.

September 22, 1991 -- The Flyers acquired Rod Brind'Amour and Dan Quinn for Ron Sutter and Murray Baron. Sutter, the Flyers' team captain, had held out earlier in training camp over a contract dispute and was the brother of then-Blues' head coach Brian Sutter. Flyers' GM Russ Farwell said "Adding some offensive power at the forward position has definitely been one of our goals and I believe this trade gives us that opportunity." Of Brind'Amour, Farwell said "His skills are excellent." With Baron, the Blues received a defenseman after having lost Scott Stevens to New Jersey as compensation for signing Brendan Shanahan. Earlier in the month, Judge Edward J. Houston, an independent arbitrator, chose between rumored proposals made by the Blues (Brind'Amour, Curtis Joseph and a third-round draft choice) and Devils (Scott Stevens).

November 5, 1991 -- The Flyers led 4-1 at the 13:01 mark, including two goals by Rick Tocchet, and held on for a 4-3 victory in St. Louis. Ron Hextall made 22 saves for the win.

Dan Kordic fought Kelly Chase. Philly went 0-for-8 on the PP. Former Flyer Ron Sutter was issued four minors in his first game against his former team. Murray Craven, who held out during training camp over a contract dispute, was a surprising scratch with Paul Holmgren saying "Right now I don't feel he's mentally prepared to help the Philadelphia Flyers. He's got problems with his contract and he's not happy with the money he's making." Craven, who was traded to Hartford eight days later for Kevin Dineen, said "I'm sure he feels it was a way to motivate me, but I think he is mistaken in that. I'm under contract to them, but I don't have to be happy about it."

February 2, 1992 --Rod Brind'Amour (1-1-2) factored in both first period goals and Ken Wregget made 28 saves in Philly's 5-1 home win. Claude Boivin (0-3-3) had assists on the first three Flyers' goals and Kerry Huffman (1-1-2) had two points. Brett Hull, the NHL's leading goal scorer, was held without a point.

In the second period. with St. Louis leading 4-3, Emerson (1-1-2) scored a key SHG leading to the removal of Dominic Roussel (11 saves, 16 shots) for Stephane Beauregard (14 saves, 15 shots). Blues' head coach Bob Plager, who coached 11 games, quit the day prior to the game and was replaced by Bob Berry.

November 7, 1992 -- Stephane Beauregard made 25 saves and Brent Fedyk (2-1-3) scored two important goals within 62 seconds of each other in a 4-2 Flyers' home win. Eric Lindros, who added an ENG, fought Lee Norwood in a fight -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDbDsOZq6u8

There were six fights in the game and in the last minute Tony Twist confronted Lindros: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCsTs-8ntbM

October 29, 1997 -- Pavol Demitra scored with 2:30 left and the Blues prevailed 3-2 in Philadelphia. Demitra's goal off a feed from Chris Pronger took an awkward bounce and fooled goalie Garth Snow. John LeClair tied the score 23 seconds earlier. The combined shot total was 32, the Flyers with the 17-15 edge.

The Flyers went 1-for-9 on the PP; the Blues were 0-for-4. Luke Richardson and Kelly Chase fought. Dan McGillis of the Flyers played 29:53 and was named the game's first star.

March 16, 1999 -- The Blues scored four third period goals and extended the Flyers' team-record winless skid to 12 games (0-8-4) with a 5-2 win in St. Louis. Philly won just twice in the past 20 games. Grant Fuhr made 26 saves while Pierre Turgeon (1-2-3) and Al MacInnis (0-3-3) had three points. Flyers' head coach Roger Neilson tossed a stick onto the ice resulting in an eventual two-game suspension and a $10,000 fine. Neilson said ''It was a reaction and protest to what we thought was a non-call and I fired a stick. There's not too much you can say about it." Neilson became upset after referee Bill McCreary allowed Terry Yake to interfere with Jody Hull just before Pavol Demitra scored six seconds into a PP to make it 3-1 in the third period. ""It was a clear-cut penalty when Jody couldn't get out to the point," said Neilson. The Flyers' coach then refused to put his players on the ice and when he was hit with a double bench minor penalty, he grabbed a stick from Mark Recchi and tossed it on the ice, nearly striking linesman Lonnie Cameron and drawing a game misconduct. "I've been ejected a few times. I didn't throw (the stick) very well, the linesman had to duck." Philly killed the 5-on-3 but 18 seconds later Eric Desjardins was penalized and Turgeon scored six seconds into the advantage to make it 4-1. The Flyers' Valeri Zelepukin scored 24 seconds later to make it 4-2. Eric Lindros then had a goal disallowed by replay officials, who ruled his skate was just inside the crease. "To call one back like that, I wasn't sure the red line was part of the crease. But a call like that is embarrassing to the league," said Neilson. It was the second goal overturned in the game as another Lindros goal, in the first period, was denied when it was ruled Keith Jones was in the crease.

The Blues unveiled a statue of Hall of Famer Brett Hull prior to the game.

Also, I do kinda doubt Carter and Richards will be on the same line. Or at least Richards as centering Carter shouldn't happen.

Meh, until we lose I doubt Lavy changes the lines up just to get Richards and Carter moving while the other lines are doing well. It does look like he doesnt wanna break up Zherdev and Giroux and also the Briere line.

October 16, 1977 -- Don Saleski recorded his third NHL hat trick, Wayne Stephenson made 25 saves and the Flyers' PP was a perfect 4-for-4 in a 7-0 home victory. Philly scored five times in the second period. The Blues went 0-for-5 on PP chances. Each team wore commemorative patches for players who passed away the prior May, the Flyers for Barry Ashbee and the Blues for Bob Gassoff.

I went to this game (actually, a few on the list). This was the first time I was exposed to someone who wasn't old dying. Barry Ashbee just seemed old to me as a kid, so his passing fell into that category, even though he wasn't that old (you know how kids are).
I had seen Gassoff the previous season. And the Flyers had a moment of silence for him (not Barry, as they did that likely at the home opener).
I've seen the Blues handful of times live in my life, and that moment of silence is the most vivid memory I have of all those games. It was eerie.
